It actually seems to be dead. Instead you have this line in http_request.rb: content_length = @params[Const::CONTENT_LENGTH].to_i Now, that means it relies on Ruby's base integer type to store the content length: http://www.ruby-doc.org/core/classes/Fixnum.html ""A Fixnum holds Integer values that can be represented in a native machine word (minus 1 bit). If any operation on a Fixnum exceeds this range, the value is automatically converted to a Bignum."" Which is kind of vague, but there's a good chance it's implemented as a 32-bit signed integer giving you a problem with a 4G content size. It should be converted to a Bignum on overflow, but a quick test would be to check the class of the content_length right after this line to see what it's getting. -- Zed A.
